AGOA, a U.S.A. trade preference act, was enacted on May 18, 2000, as Public Law 106 of the 200th Congress. On June 29, 2015, the U.S.A. President Barack Obama signed the AGOA Trade Preferences Extension Act into law, extending the AGOA legislation by a further 10 years to 2025. The legislation significantly enhances market access to the U.S.A. for qualifying sub-Saharan African countries. AGOA builds on existing U.S.A. trade programs by expanding the duty-free benefits previously available only under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program, designed to promote economic growth in developing countries. AGOA, combined with GSP, provides duty-free access to the U.S.A. for approximately 6,400 tariff lines.
AGOA allows for the duty-free export of over 6,000 products to export to the United States of America (U.S.A.)
